Places to look include craigslist and Bill pointed out starboardnet.com hcmcommercial.com, loopnet.com, and sfarmls.com. Also look in windows of buildings as you pass by and take down "for rent" numbers. When you see a place that looks interesting, add it to the list of "places to set up viewings" below. If you have a minute and can schedule some time out of your day, pick up a place from the list and call the landlord to set up a viewing.

Completed Viewings

We (Jake Appelbaum, Andy Isaacson, and David Molnar) went out to go look at
an office space advertised on craigslist on Thursday that might be available
for a permanent move-in soon. We actually ended up seeing two places. Here
are some notes on the places plus pictures. These give some idea of what
possible options are in addition to 40 Ringold. (Thanks again to Bill for
letting us use 40 Ringold for meetings, etc. during this time!)

The next few have pix Rachel took on the way to & from work, mostly on Folsom & Howard between 6th and 10th. For some tedious iPhone reason, although the pix are all oriented correctly on my Mac they are sideways or upside down after uploading... anyone understand about this? (Preview.app reads the EXIM data that's aware of the orientation, but doesn't save the image as the same direction -Matt)
